UNSPSC 85702850: Excision of right metatarsal, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right metatarsal, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0QBN4ZZ

UNSPSC 85702850 Excision of right metatarsal, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the most recent opportunities tagged under this code solicit occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve metatarsal excision or endoscopic orthopedic procedures. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source records or that this code is not actively used for state and local procurement in the current environment.

The recent solicitations under this code span state departments, counties, and municipal health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeks independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026) solicits a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program through Centers of Excellence; the Washington State Department of Transportation (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requests occupational medical surveillance services; and the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) is building a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. No recent activity represents the orthopedic surgical procedures the code nominally describes. This code warrants close scrutiny before pursuit; verify the actual commodity or service classification for state and local opportunities your firm is evaluating.
